This paper proposes a novel multifunctional sensing platform based on multimode planar photonic crystals (PPCs). We analytically and numerically demonstrate that the reflection spectrum of PPCs exhibits multiple high-Q resonant modes, and the fundamental and higher-order modes respond distinctively to external mechanical and thermal perturbations, rendering the PPCs superior capability for detection and discrimination of multiple parameters. We further demonstrate simultaneous pressure and temperature sensing with a PPC sensor. Other advantages of PPC sensors include on-chip integration and wafer-scale fabrications.

Nanoscale photonic crystal cavity optomechanical devices enable detection of nanomechanical phenomena with a sensitivity sufficient to observe quantum effects. Here we present the design of a one-dimensional air-mode photonic crystal cavity patterned
in a silicon nitride nanobeam, and show that it forms the basis for cavity optomechanical split-beam and paddle nanocavity devices useful for force detection and nonlinear quantum sensing. The air-mode of this device is advantageous for optomechanical coupling, while also having ultrahigh optical quality factor $Q_osim 10^6$ despite its proximity to the light-line and the relatively low refractive index of silicon nitride. Paddle nanocavities realized from this device have a quadratic coupling coefficient $g^{(2)}/2pi$~=~10~MHz/nm$^{2}$, and their performance within the context of quantum optomechanics experiments is analyzed.
We designed and built a new type of spatial mode multiplexer, based on Multi-Plane Light Conversion (MPLC), with very low intrinsic loss and high mode selectivity. In this first demonstration we show that a typical 3-mode multiplexer achieves a mode
selectivity better than -23 dB and a total insertion efficiency of -4.1 dB (optical coating improvements could increase efficiency to -2.4 dB), across the full C-band. Moreover this multiplexer is able to perform any mode conversion, and we demonstrate its performance for the first 6 eigenmodes of a few-mode fiber: LP$_{01}$, LP$_{11mathrm{a}}$, LP$_{11mathrm{b}}$, LP$_{02}$, LP$_{21mathrm{a}}$ and LP$_{21mathrm{b}}$.
In this work, a numerical modal decomposition approach is applied to model the optical field of laser light after propagating through a highly multi-mode fiber. The algorithm for the decomposition is based on the reconstruction of measured intensity
profiles along the laser beam caustic with consideration of intermodal degrees of coherence derived from spectral analysis. To enhance the accuracy of the model, different approaches and strategies are applied and discussed. The presented decomposition into a set of LP modes enables both the wave-optical simulation of radiation transport by highly multi-mode fibers and, additionally, the analysis of free-space propagation with arbitrarily modified complex amplitude distributions.
In this work, a refractive index (RI) sensor with an effective integration of colorimetric detection and optical sensing capabilities has been developed. Colorimetric detection relies on the sensitivity of the structural color of photonic crystal (PC
) substrates to the changes in background RI, while the optical sensing is performed by measuring the magnification abilities of the dielectric microspheres, which depends on the position of the photonic nanojet. Based on this concept, we have successfully assembled 35 {mu}m-diameter barium titanate glass microspheres, 4.9 {mu}m-diameter polystyrene and silica microsphere monolayers on 1D or 2D PC substrates to perform RI sensing in various liquids. In addition, the developed RI sensor is highly compatible with commercial optical microscopes and applicable for RI sensing in areas as small as tens of square microns.
Whispering gallery mode biosensors allow selective unlabelled detection of single proteins and, combined with quantum limited sensitivity, the possibility for noninvasive realtime observation of motor molecule motion. However, to date technical noise
sources, most particularly low frequency laser noise, have constrained such applications. Here we introduce a new technique for whispering gallery mode sensing based on direct detection of back-scattered light. This experimentally straightforward technique is immune to frequency noise in principle, and further, acts to suppress thermorefractive noise. We demonstrate 27 dB of frequency noise suppression, eliminating frequency noise as a source of sensitivity degradation and allowing an absolute frequency shift sensitivity of 76 kHz. Our results open a new pathway towards single molecule biophysics experiments and ultrasensitive biosensors.
